Pacesetter and Clear Image Automotive are the only ones who make them for the 3.8. Force Fed Fabrications is in the process of designing longtubes for our cars. Or you can can have some custom made ($$$).

Honestly, I would reccomend an STS turbo, they work for any car. You just have to find a turbo shop that'll do the work. www.ststurbo.com ( I think thats the website, if not google it).

Hey
I was wondering if there is ANY type of forced induction for the 3.8 camaros. I found alot, but they are around 3500-4k and higher (turbos and s/c). I just want something cheap, not a 60mm turbo or anything great like that. I'm thinking I should piece one together, im sure I can save alot, but I don't know any turbo kit that is good that I can use to build my own kit =/
TIA!

Please do not dig up all the old "I want a cheap turbo " threads cause there are a lot of them. It is simple physic. It takes a lot of power to move hundreds of CFMs of air with any type of pressure. Infact if I have to spec out a 700 CFM system that need to maintain 1-2 PSI it would end up being a 2 phase 5HP motor. That is 6600 Watts. That 900 watt supercharge would be like peeing on a forest fire.
You might feel a little faster right off idle but I would bet money the alternator will use more HP making 60 amps then the motor will gain above 2000 RPM. First time anyone (not attached to the company) shows real proof they improved a ¼ mile time these things will fly off the shelf.
